Minimization

Error minimization is the subject; how good is the genetic code at minimizing some error function (cost, objective, or fitness function, or whatever ya wanna call it). ❋ Unknown (2008)

Now, minimization is great, and as I say above, there are solid reasons why intelligence surveillance probably needs to shift some oversight and checks from the front-end to the back-end, relative to Title III criminal wiretapping. ❋ Unknown (2008)

But raw transcripts would not necessarily have undergone such editing, called "minimization." ❋ By SCOTT SHANE (2011)

It reiterates our previous conclusion that wiring cost minimization, which is related to the physical distance between neurons, is not a dominant factor governing the organization of As developmental processes are believed to play a critical role in determining the structure of the nervous system, we also consider the alternative hypothesis that the structural modules reflect a clustering of neurons that are related in terms of their lineage. ❋ Raj Kumar Pan Et Al. (2010)

This is a specific kind of minimization, and it sends the same negative message: Your feelings are based on nothing real. ❋ Ph.D. Robert Leahy (2011)

One would think that Gilman should have had to say that the failure to adhere to FISA increased the chance that the calls would be intercepted or that there'd be less "minimization" of anything actually intercepted, so the program caused some increment of fear. ❋ Ann Althouse (2007)

A useful way to look at this process is as a kind of minimization, i.e., an attempt to minimize the extension of a given predicate ( "flight-between," in this case). ❋ Antonelli, G. Aldo (2006)

Whereas Ackermann's function cannot be obtained by means of primitive recursion, it can be obtained by further expanding the class of recursive functions by introducing a "minimization" or "least search" operator μ. ❋ Odifreddi, Piergiorgio (2005)

There is not much that is safe from a perjury prosecution if mere "minimization" qualifies for the offense. ❋ ITY National Archives (1998)

As weak as the "minimization" charge is, it is also wrong. ❋ ITY National Archives (1998)
